Abstract:
Systems, methods and devices are provided for performing diagnostic or therapeutic transcranial procedures using a patient-specific transcranial headset. The patient-specific headset may include a patient-specific frame that is fabricated, according to volumetric image data, to conform to an anatomical curvature of a portion of a patient's head. The patient-specific frame is configured to support a plurality of transducers in pre-selected positions and orientations, which may be spatially registered to the volumetric image data. This spatial registration may be employed to control at least a portion of the transducers to focus energy at a pre-selected tissue region.
